Lily and Carl arrived later than expected, dinner had already been served as conveyed by the head butler and the entire palace had retired for the night. Carl was instructed to go check in with his mother at once.
Lily stepped into the palace hoping to see James in the palace entry way but instead she saw a lady with brown hair pulled into a tight bun. The sun had set and it was dark. The lady held a lamp in her hands.
"Welcome Princess," she said bowing. Lily started a little. Princess? "Come along to your room."
Lily followed wondering where everyone was. James, Georg, Edisson? Could they all have forgotten about her? She felt so alone. Especially because now she was starting to miss her parents.
"My name is Lady Molly," The Lady said and opened a door. "And this is you room."
